THE THINGS THEY SAID

“I was a miner and I was a cowboy but mostly I was a hobo. I fought wherever I could, in school halls, outside saloons, anyplace they were putting up a purse. I once walked thirty miles across the desert to a town called Goldfield in Nevada so I could fight for twenty dollars. I got beat a lot. I improved. But I remember the beatings I took. Once I got beat so bad they had to take me out of the ring in a wheelbarrow.”

Sept 18th is just around the corner. Hide your livers, hide your kidneys cause we're looking to damage all body parts.

'As bad as it is to get knocked out with a shot to the head, it's nowhere near as painful as a perfectly placed body shot. You draw the left in tight and you pivot hard, rotating your hips like a golfer on the tee. Then you drive through the man, sinking your fist deep into his tissue so far and clean that you swear, if you weren't wearing a glove, you could grab his liver with your fingers.

Drive a left hook deep into a man's belly right below that floating rib, and he's instantly incapacitated. There is something elegant about it; the delayed reaction, the way the punch lands and the fight continues until suddenly, after a second or two, the man who has been hit drops to one knee in a display of utter submissiveness. He can wait for five seconds, ten seconds, a minute. It doesn't matter. That paralysing pain isn't going away.'
